What is a pool reactor
Thread Content
At 12:56 on August 15, the last large-scale equipment in the project of Jiujiang Xinlianxin Fertilizer Co., Ltd., which has an annual production capacity of 600,000 tons of synthetic ammonia, 520,000 tons of urea, and 400,000 tons of dimethyl ether, was safely and smoothly lifted onto the 23-meter-high steel structure framework – namely, the tank reactor.
The pool reactor is the core equipment of the world’s advanced ultra-low-energy urea production process, and it is also the equipment that ranks first in terms of size, weight, and cost among the individual units used in the Jiujiang large-scale project. The equipment was shipped from the manufacturer in June, underwent 3 months of sea and river transport, and arrived at the project site on August 10.
Is this the exact device name?
The 2000+ urea production process in Stamicarbon makes profits by leveraging the concept of pool reactors; it can no longer rely on the old high-pressure methamine condenser design
Thank you; I really don’t understand this process. Thanks for your guidance!
Then why is it also called a reactor? ? ? ?

Liquid ammonia and carbon dioxide condense within the tubes of the high-pressure ammonium methanate condenser; as a result of this reaction, ammonium methanate is formed. The heat released during this reaction is used to heat the water outside the tubes, generating low-pressure steam. The degree of condensation of ammonium methanate is controlled by the pressure in the steam drum, with a condensation rate of around 80%. The condensed liquid and the uncondensed gas flow into the synthesis tower through separate tubes at the bottom of the high-pressure ammonium methanate condenser.
As the inventor of the CO2 stripping urea production technology, the Dutch company Stamicarbon holds a leading position in the industry regarding the understanding and application of CO2 stripping processes and principles. The company has over 260 applications of urea technology worldwide, boasting advanced international practical operation data and experience. Through 70 years of accumulation, the quality and reliability of their designs far exceed those of domestic design institutes of similar rank. Technicians from Kabang Company will carry out a 6-day on-site diagnosis at the urea plant in the fourth branch office. They will assess the existing urea production process, equipment configuration, and operating parameters, identify the bottlenecks that affect capacity expansion and energy reduction, and provide detailed plans for process modifications and equipment settings to facilitate energy-saving optimization efforts, thus laying the foundation for determining the appropriate reform plans for the urea plant.
